No one else carries NGK here in Saskatoon.

I'll have to check with them. The guy at the counter likes to snort with derision when I ask about parts for my RX-7, making me less inclined to buy from them even if it's cheaper.

$4.09 for denso plugs from autozone. I work for denso so don't talk shit :D
All in all they seem to be working good.

After swapping the Autolites that were in my car when I bought it for a set of NGK's, I can see why.
The autolites had a single side electrode, whereas the NGK's have 4. Much better performance after the plug swap, even though I just changed them because I had no idea how long they had been in it. Ran fine, but I felt it was wise to put in a fresh set of NGK's, since that was what everyone reccomended.
Thanks, lesson learned :bigthumb:
Rotary engine = NGK plugs for me from now on :cool:

canadian from lordco, its like $12 a plug for NGKs and like $3.40 for autolites... havent ever tried autolites, but christ could they be anymore expensive for NGKs?

jays83gsl 05-07-05 02:42 AM

Also, Autolites are supposedly longer, and can chip the apexes.

Jeff20B 05-07-05 02:51 AM

Autolite—something to avoid.

Dan H 05-07-05 02:58 AM

Man, no one here sells FB plugs for $5 each. :( I just bought a set of NGK's here for $10 each. Ouch.

For some reason, I can get FC plugs at $5 each though.

jays83gsl 05-07-05 03:08 AM

Dudes: NAPA

I get mine for $10 for ALL FOUR
